Pregnant - but just feel like normal!
Hi everyone! I'm new to this site and joined as I googled a certain worry I have with this pregnancy.
I'm 6 weeks pregnant and I just feel as though nothing is happening. This is my second child - with my first I knew straight away with all the sickness, tiredness, dizziness and food aversion. But with this pregnancy there's absolutely no symptoms. I get so worried I'm testing several times a week to make sure that I am pregnant.
I'm not due to see a widwife for another 2 weeks so if anyone has similar problems - please let me know!
Thanks, Karys. ?

I am 5 months pregnant and have days where I feel perfectly normal and apartfrom the odd movement I actually don't feel pregnant. I've not really suffered with sickness - it was more tiredness with me - so don't worry its perfectly normal to feel perfectly normal.
There will be plenty days later in the pregnancy when you can't wait to feel normal again.
Good luck and take care x
I am exactly the same. Dont feel any different, havent had any sickness or gone off any foods etc. The only symptoms i have had were really tired up to about 14 weeks (was in bed by 8pm - 8.30pm most nights) and apart from mildish period pain type cramps that was all i have really had.
I too was worried in the early weeks and asked my midwife if it was a bad sign I didnt suffer with sickness and that i didnt feel pregnant and she said 'no your just one of the lucky ones and to enjoy it'.
The tiredness has subsided a bit now (can stay up til 10pm now - woohoo!) but tummy cramps are still there now and again.
Good luck and enjoy your pregnancy!! )

I am the same, I am 8 weeks and apart from tiredness ( I consider 9pm very late!) I have no signs. I have had bleeding so have had 2 early scans and even seeing the little bean and heartbeat, I stilll don't really feel pregnant!!
I guess its more common than we thought to feel normal!

I had my scan yesterday and I'm pleased to say Pumpkin is doing fine.
I think people like you and me are very lucky especially as we have other children to look after. Just give it a few more weeks and I'm sure you will get a sign. I hope this has made you feel a bit more at ease. Good luck xxxxx
I guess it's a really good thing because not only do I have to look after my 2 year old daughter but I also have to finish my Law degree (which ends April next year - giving me 2 months to prepare for our new arrival).
Thank you x
